New version (V2) MMM has fan control - RC-Monster Forums

On the V2 MMM, the processor has the fan controlled -- so the processor will only turn the fan on when required.

So don't be surprised when the fan doesn't turn on when first powered up.

We were always planning on using the bullets -- just didn't get the production bullets in time for the first batch.

We will send it to you. Don't worry. We just didn't have them in stock to send with the MMM, and we wanted to get some of them out for testing.

I don't like the idea of having bullet connectors at the battery input. For whatever reason they might come undone and shorting the batteries out.

I do like the new fan feature though.

You can always solder directly to the female bullets... :)

I really don't know what you mean... we don't advertise a continuous amp rating...

Pdelcast: Sent you a PM.

Hats off to you and Castle Creations. I'm sure this will be a huge success.

So the Fan kicks on at 140 degrees or so? Nice!

This will prolong the life of the fan for sure and also save a small amount of energy for when it's not needed.

What kinda air flow does the fan provide? cfm?

I'm very happy with your production schedule and the success you're having. My MMM is in RC Monster's second batch of pre-orders somewhere.

I have a 14xl that I would like to try in my E Revo on 6S. There's a few outrunners here I would like to play around with also.

There is a spot on my E Revo Chassis that is just made for your new creation!

Thank you for being so informative.

How about a vehicle spec? Like the MMM can handle a certain weight vehicle at a certain speed with a certain motor? I know it is 1/8 scale compatible, and is doing fine in my revo.
